Enigmatic Japanese producer Shinichi Atobe evokes a range of sensations in his music that few others can. Whether he's listened to in headphones on a long journey, on the sofa on a lazy Sunday, deep into an afters or during a peak time reprieve, the rich, vivid strokes of his heady work has equal power to relax, heal, move, energise, envelop and flaw. 

Another scholar of patient tension-building in electronic music, Prins Thomas included Atobe in the footnote homage of his sixth album, alongside luminaries from all sounds and ages. As a mark of how much Atobe's work has impacted on his own, Thomas has paid tribute with an hour mix.

salam ! 

i thought it important to stay true to the emotions that birthed seed. so the first one is from me 

i found this process very difficult, got stuck in the headspace of wanting to make it a good ‘mix’ but it just not working while staying true to these feelings. and i realised that it’s not meant to be make sense, feeling these emotions simultaneously is jarring, it’s abrupt highs and lows, it’s stop and start, it’s silence. cold and warm. it’s the complete disruption of flow following slight cohesion- conflicting. it’s disrupted diversions into altering soundscapes

i had a go at this a few times, and this version was my last attempt. i cried the whole way through and it was on that very spicy full moon, it’s raw- but it’s honest

this is how heartbreak and introspection sound to me 

big love

SEED001 ~ 'siren in my dreams' ~ on heartbreak and introspection

For this set I played on 4 CDJ 3000’s and a V10 mixer, using both of its internal effects processors. For every No Way Back set, and for most sets, I try to prepare new hardware remasters and edits of things that I think would be fascinating recontextualized in this setting. But for NWB, it is even more special, a peak moment, so I try to have new records I’m working on in the studio to test out. For this set that means the hardware mixes I’ve been working on for Torrvo and for Andy Toth can be tested, I’m working on this hardware mixing and remastering tone palate, so I spread that to some edits to give them a whole new power. Playing at No Way Back cannot be put into words, though we try every year, it really is inexplicable without experiencing it. It’s the environment you most want to be in, the space is totally transformed, the sound is dialed in, the audience is so ready, very giving and open, and the feedback you get is incredible. People are up for a ride – we start at the Tangent and end up going to the other side of the universe. Freedom within and without. There’s no place I’d rather be, so I thought I’d share this much sooner than we usually do. Enjoy the ride.

Centrific Communion 2025

Recorded live at R@B Forest Party in Oslo on May 3rd 2025

Marius Bø is a figure within the northern hemisphere of the electronic music landscape, his artistry is deeply rooted in a profound connection to nature's atmosphere and the communal spirit of open-air gatherings. As one of the co-founders of the Oslo-based collective Ute, Marius' musical journey finds its origins nestled amidst the Norwegian forests. It is here, between the trees and rustling leaves, that his sound took root, hosting and playing parties deep in the woods. Founded in 2017, the Ute label boasts a cult-like following for its approach to psychedelic trance music as well as long form downtempo and chill out sounds presented on sub labels Sinensis and Translusid. 

Marius’ sets can be seen as a concoction of psychedelic atmospherics, renowned for his extended sets, generating dynamic tensions and sublime releases that work both the body and mind. Mastering different tempos and moods of deep hypnosis, he deftly connects the dots between old school records and futuristic soundscapes. Whether it’s ambient, idm, trance or techno, the Ute label-head seamlessly blends the sounds with a captivating elegance. 
From hazy braindance to high-energy vibrations in mist-shrouded forests, balmy shores and dimly-lit basements, Marius navigates diverse settings with his distinctive musical style that takes a gentle yet firm grip on the soul. 

His unique approach has brought him to iconic venues such as Pawnshop, Bassiani, and Macadam, and to international festivals like Monument in the heart of Norway’s forest, Organik on a hidden peninsula in Taiwan and Outsider Festival, deep in the Australian bush. Whether in intimate clubs or verdant outdoor landscapes, Marius' music carries an organic and trippy spirit that transcends time and space.

MIX083 - Marius Bø (奧斯陸) [Live for R@B]

Tracklist: https://bit.ly/polygoniacovermix
Read the cover feature: https://bit.ly/polygoniamixmag

@polygonia shares a mind-melting and expansive mix accompaniment to her new album 'Dream Horizons' on @dkmntl, on which she flexes full creative freedom.

"A reflection of shifting dreamscapes, this mix traces the arc of 'Dream Horizons', my new album on Dekmantel. It mirrors the album’s wide stylistic and tempo range — traversing pulses, textures, and energies, swelling into a feverish rush before breaking apart and exhaling into a halftime echo. Genres dissolve and reemerge not as contrasts, but as fragments of a shared vision."

The Cover Mix: Polygonia

Under the Priori (@priori-ties) moniker, Québecois musician Francis Latreille has established himself as a crucial voice in underground techno — as a producer, DJ, and live artist. Across a sprawling discography that includes four full-length albums, several EPs, and a host of collaborative projects, he has crafted a sound that is richly textured and genre-defying.

Priori’s work spans the full spectrum of techno, from introspective and meditative passages to driving, dancefloor-oriented momentum. His productions blend elements of ambient, dub, IDM, and tech house, navigating fluidly between nature and technology with a signature sense of unresolved tension. Fractal-like rhythms, crystalline textures, and meticulous sound design define his sonic world — intricate, vibrant, and emotionally resonant.

Beyond his solo output, Priori is also an accomplished mixing engineer, having collaborated with artists such as james K, Bambii, Maara, Ex-Terrestrial, Roza Terenzi, and D.Tiffany. As a co-founder of both NAFF and Jump Source Studio, his influence continues to shape the contours of underground electronic music across Canada and Europe.

Dellamar - Dbeee DJeee (Lizplay Records)

“angel!xc” is a world I created without words — an instrumental that says everything I couldn’t put into lyrics just yet. When I made it, I felt like I was caught between light and darkness, like an angel watching everything from a distance but unable to reach down and feel it. It’s emotional, cinematic, a little chaotic, but still beautiful — exactly how I felt inside.

Ciao tutti 💖
So happy to share the recording from my last set at Open Ground from December 2024. 

It was an emotional journey ~ I wanted to tell a story of diving into underwater dream lands, where spirit guides and glitchy creatures meet and send us messages from the other side... where sound takes over the brain and opens something in the heart and body.
I waved through many genres ~ ambient, jungle, electro, dubstep, drill, jazz, techno and the wonky in-between. It felt like I had the chance to express a fuller spectrum of who I am as a music lover. 🙏

That night, I had the honour of opening for the legend Surgeon ~ someone who’s deeply inspired my path since the very beginning. Sharing that moment with him and connecting was just wow. 🥹

Open Ground truly is one of the most special places on earth ~ the care, the sound, the freedom, the community, the crew… just perfection. 

So grateful to be invited back this saturday ! (26.07.2025) 
Don’t skip ~ come sweat and feel with us 🌀💎💦

~ with love & gratitude ~
